Admission:

Nowadays there is an all-time high in the need for better healthcare facilities and radiotherapy is such an important area that has the scope of showing many more job opportunities in the future. I have always wanted to be a radiotherapist. So once I had completed my MBBS I applied to some institutes and Kidwai was one among them. Their admission procedure basically involved an All India entrance test (conducted by Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences) followed by a counselling process. The other prerequisite was an MBBS degree and a registration with any state medical council. Alternatively, there is also a university entrance exam through which the seats remaining after the above process is filled. So one can try that way too.
